Altered Inchie Treasure box "tutorial"

First, thank you all for your kind words--this istruly one of my favorite projects ever!

Second, it was so easy to make (aside from collectingall the inchies), that I don't know if this can honestly count as a tutorial:

The box used had an existing lip around the top, so I first positioned the inchies, then adhered each row using Super Tacky Glue. After the glue dried, I went around the edges of each inchie with Crystal Effects (pretty much the same as Diamond Glaze), adding microbeads in areas.

Most of the inchies were already embossed, so I haven'tsealed the entire top with anything yet, but it wouldprobably be a good idea to do so.

If you make an Inchie Treasure Box, please leave mea link--I'd love to see it!
